Alex Jones and InfoWars sign up as Jeunesse distributors?

Regardless of where you fall on the political spectrum, you’ve probably heard of Alex Jones.

Gay frogs, crisis actor claims, getting banned from pretty much every significant social media network for terms of service violations over the past month?

Yeah, Jones is an undeniably divisive personality in the political discourse sphere who’s hard to miss.

But I’m not here to dissect the fictional character Alex Jones plays on the internet. What caught my attention is Jones having signed up as a Jeunesse distributor.

Jones is branding his Jeunesse distributorship as “InfoWars Yes”. And the first thing you see when you visit Jones’ Jeunesse site is a marketing pitch for autoship, both retail and recruitment.

As of yet there’s no Jeunesse products featured on the InfoWars Store page. When they do appear, Jones will sell Jeunesse products alongside Lung Cleanse, True Alpha Male Pack, Ultimate Bone Broth, Brain Force Plus, The Real Red Pill and other supplements.

Product links on the InfoWars Yes website redirect to Jeunesse Global, under the distributor accounts “infowars”, “infowarsyes” and “infowars01”.

Why Jones needs three Jeunesse distributor accounts, I have no idea. Maybe he received one of Jeunesse’s infamous secret backroom deals.

Again, without getting into Jones’ politics, here’s a few thoughts that come to mind.

First and foremost InfoWars is a brand unto itself. Jones is an individual for sure, but his Jeunesse distributorship is clearly being pushed through multiple InfoWars accounts.

How are individual Jeunesse distributors going to compete with a corporate entity with an established nation-wide audience of potential leads?

To what extent will retail the be the focus of Jones’ Jeunesse distributorship? We’ve already covered the general lack of retail focus within the company, so is Jones looking to recruit his audience primarily as customers or distributors on autoship?

This is pertinent, because if the opportunity is going to be pushed then there’s a major problem with Jeunesse’s autoship-centric approach.

For their part I’m assuming Jeunesse aren’t ignorant of the InfoWars distributorship, but how do they feel as a company about the prospect of Jeunesse products being associated with some of Jones more “out there” content?

At this stage there’s a lot of questions but not too many answers. Definitely something I’ll be keeping an eye on going forward though.

whereas some of alex jones’ fringy ideology may have made him a popular infamous local celebrity of sorts in the USA, the recent social media bans against him are currently giving him his fifteen minutes of fame on the international stage.

wiki says his website infowars receives about 10 million hits every month!

but, does jeunesse really want to be associated with alex jones’ ‘nutjob’ brand? that’s taking the ‘any publicity is good publicity’ strategy a bit far!

on the ‘support us’ page on the infowars website which is promoting jeunesse, there is a short interview with a dr vincent giampapa who’s on jeunesse’s advisory board [or something] and is supposed to be an expert in anti ageing research [jeunesse pumps mostly anti ageing and dietary products].

funny thing is this giampapa fellow has a face full of botox that’s slightly disconcerting to look at. sooo, all those anti ageing products seem to be working reeaaal good!

The more you think about it the more sense it makes. If you run an MLM, you need access to a large number of people who are mentally vulnerable and willing to believe in cultish alternative realities (I’m running my own business, I’m going to get rich, everyone who says it’s a scam is a hater, etc etc).

*ring ring* “Hi, I’m Alex Jones. I’ve got two and a half million subscribers who will believe literally anything and I’m looking for an MLM scheme to help me milk them for every cent I can get.”

“What position in the pyramid would you like to start at, Mr Jones?”

“Triple Mega Sunshine Diamond. And I want two of them.”

“I’m afraid we can only offer you three.”

“Done. Heil Jeunesse!”

The idea that other Jeunesse participants may not want to be associated with Alex Jones has a crucial flaw; it assumes that Jeunesse participants have moral scruples.

They are not going to abandon their downlines and their commissions over some political villain-of-the-week.

I wouldn’t be at all surprised if the alt-left organised some “Boycott Jeunesse” petitions or something, but virtually every single signature will come from people who had never heard of Jeunesse before Jones joined them and would never have bought their dog food (Ultimate Bone Broth??) anyway.

The fact he is promoting 3 positions also suggests he doesn’t have a “deal” as with all binary comp plans the most sensible thing to do it has 3 positions.

I think you’ll find you need to cut a deal if you want to stack three positions. It’s generally otherwise not allowed.

You can get away with maybe by registering your dog, car, aunt that died 20 years ago etc., but if you’re going to use the obviously similar account names you’d have to be doing it out in the open. That requires a backroom deal.

Jeunesse are notorious for backroom deals, to the extent probability wise I’d tilt away from giving them the benefit of the doubt.
